It’s unbelievable how vocal the minority of conservatives on reddit have suddenly gotten in the one sub where a large demographic of important voters often interact. Hmmm. Coincidence?

    I can only conclude from such behavior that it is not about exchanging ideas with others, but about promoting a clearly defined world view,

    some people want to spread their ideas. that doesn’t make them not-people or even require that tehy are paid.

      Is your argument that it’s okay to spread hate and slander without providing any evidence as long as people aren’t getting paid? Also, what makes you so sure that these are private accounts?

        i assume that other users are actual users. there is no reason for you to assume they are not.

            i am going to push back on that a bit and say that your presumption about other users is unfounded and toxic to the community.

              Ok, noted. Will try to do better. Just one more followup question: Why do you think my presumptions are unfounded? I mean besides that you seem to have faith in the good of all people and don’t seem to think that there is such a thing as computational propaganda.
